# ini
## Overview
**ini** is a simple C library for parsing and creating [INI files](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file). It possesses the following characteristics:
- Compatible with C89
- Has no external dependencies
INI files are commonly used to store configuration data, and our library makes it easy to read and write these files in C programs.

## Installation
To use this library in your own project, simply download the source code from the repository and link the `ini.c` and `ini.h` files with your project.
## Usage
This library provides a set of functions for reading and writing INI files. Here's an example of how to read an INI file:
```c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "ini_file.h"
int main(const int argc, const char **const argv) {
struct Ini_File *ini_file;
if (argc < 2) {
fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s ini_file_name\n", argv[0]);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
ini_file = ini_file_parse(argv[1], NULL);
if (ini_file == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "Was not possible to parse the ini_file \"%s\"\n", argv[1]);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
printf("\nThe properties retrieved from the the ini file \"%s\" are:\n\n", argv[1]);
ini_file_print_to(ini_file, stdout);
ini_file_free(ini_file);
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
```
For a complete list of functions and their documentation, see the `ini.h` header file.
## Examples
